HOW TO USE CYCLE SETTINg BUTTONS (cont.) DRY Drying options are easily selected with the DRY button. For most even drying, make sure all articles in the clothes load are similar in material and thickness. Do not overload the washer by placing too many articles into the drum. Items must be able to tumble freely. If you open door and remove load before washer has finished the DRY cycle, remember to press the START/ PAUSE button. By pressing the DRY button, you can select: 1 LOW TEMP - For delicate fabrics 2 LESS - If you want to iron clothes 3 NORMAL - For general drying 4 MORE - For heavier fabrics 5 30/60/90/120 - For timed drying NOTES: • The capacity of the machine for washing clothes is twice as much as when drying clothes. If the machine is to be used to dry a load, then the wash load must be reduced by half for effective drying performance. If a full load is washed, remove half the clothes prior to starting the dry cycle. • The Wrinkle Care feature is set automatically when drying cycle is complete and cannot be disabled. • This feature will help prevent wrinkling of the clothes if they are not removed promptly when the dry cycle ends. When drying cycle is completed, [COOL DOWN] is displayed on the Multi display. The COOL DOWN is setting automatically when a drying cycle is complete. When you are not remove a load of clothes from the dryer as soon as it stops, wrinkles can form. The COOL DOWN operating periodically tumbles, rearranges and fluffs the load to avoid wrinkles without heat for up to 4 hours. The message will continue to display until the clothes are removed or the Start/Pause button is pressed. 22 Drying guide-Automatic Dry Electronic sensors measure the temperature of the exhaust to increase or decrease the drying temperature for faster reaction time and tighter temperature control. Recommended DRY settings by fabric type: a) Perm Press - LOW TEMP b) If clothes are to be ironed - LESS c) Cotton/Towels - NORMAL d) Diapers - MORE NOTE: On Automatic Dry settings, the estimated drying time may vary from the actual drying time. The type of fabric, size of the load, and the selected dryness level affect drying time. Drying guide-Timed Dry • Press the Dry button repeatedly to select the drying time in 30 minute increments: 30-60-90-120 minutes. • Timed dry can last up to 120 min. When selecting Dry only, drying will start after the final Spin cycle. • Drying times can vary greatly depending on dampness, room temperature, and type of fabric. You may need to add additional time. Your own experience will be your best guide. Drying Tips Woolen Articles Do not tumble dry woolen articles. Pull them to their original shape and dry them flat. Woven and Loopknit Materials • Some woven and loopknit materials may shrink when dried. • Always stretch them out immediately after drying. Permanent Press and Synthetics • Do not overload your dryer. • Take out permanent press articles as soon as the dryer stops to reduce wrinkles. Fiber or Leather Materials Always check the manufacturer's instructions. Baby Clothes and Night Gowns Always check the manufacturer's instructions. Rubber and Plastics Do not dry any items made from or containing rubber or plastics, such as: a) Aprons, bibs, chair covers b) Curtains and table cloths c) Bathmats Fiberglass Do not dry fiberglass articles in your dryer. Glass particles left in the washer could be picked up by your clothes the next time you use the washer and irritate your skin.
